Jarod Kintz "You gotta run more than your mouth to escape the treadmill of mediocrity. A true hustler jogs during the day, and sleepwalks at night." Habeeb Akande "The difference between greed and ambition is a greedy person desires things he isn't prepared to work for." Malcolm Gladwell "If you work hard enough and assert yourself, and use your mind and imagination, you can shape the world to your desires." Vince Lombardi "Perfection is not attainable, but if we chase perfection we can catch excellence." Sanjo Jendayi "Greatness is sifted through the grind, therefore don't despise the hard work now for surely it will be worth it in the end." |
